A computer crash means I'll have to look through backups, but I do have XRF readings on the kard above and a few other wootz blades that I hope to share in a few days for comparison.

More important, in the meantime, Verhoeven's ground breaking paper The Key Role of Impurities in Ancient Damascus Steel Blades may be found at https://www.tms.org/pubs/journals/JO...even-9809.html
